Patient's question:
A 23-year-old female discovered small bumps on the inner wall of her labia minora last night. Today, she went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with vulvar polyps, moderate cervical erosion, some pelvic effusion, and a high white blood cell count in her vaginal discharge. The examination showed 0-2 squamous epithelial cells per high power field (rarely seen) and no Candida, Trichomonas, or Chlamydia trachomatis.Previous treatment history and effectiveness:
She had no previous experience and was unsure how to treat it. The doctor recommended she undergo TCT and HPV tests. Results will be available in 4 to 5 days. Today, no medication was prescribed.
What should I pay attention to? What medication should I take?
The doctor recommended TCT and HPV tests. Results will be available in 4 to 5 days. Today, no medication was prescribed.
Doctor's answer:
Vaginal polyps need to wait for the HPV results to confirm their nature. TCT is a cervical exfoliated cell cytology anti-aging test, which is a further examination after the discovery of cervical erosion. If the results are normal, it proves that vaginal inflammation stimulation causes vaginal tumors and cervical erosion, and it is necessary to actively treat vaginal inflammation. If pregnant, it is recommended to undergo LEEP knife cervical repair surgery to prevent erosion expansion or malignant transformation. Currently, it is important to maintain vaginal hygiene, eat less spicy and irritating foods, wear pure cotton underwear, avoid using sanitary pads, and wear fewer tight pants like jeans. For patients, if gynecological disease symptoms are severe, timely symptomatic treatment and proper medication should be administered, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of gynecological diseases.
